Confidence Intervals 9. Construct a 95 % confidence interval for the population mean, . In a random sample of 32 computers, the mean repair cost was $143 with a sample standard deviation of $35 (Section 6.2) Margin of error, E. <με. Confidence Interval: O Suppose you did some research on repair costs for computers and found that the population standard deviation, a,- $35. Use the normal distribution to construct a 95% confidence interval the population mean, u. Compare the results....
Discuss the importance of constructing confidence intervals for the population mean. What are confidence intervals? What is a point estimate? What is the best point estimate for the population mean? Explain. Why do we need confidence intervals?
Which of the following confidence intervals for ˆp, taken from the same population, will be the smallest? A. 90% confidence, n = 200 B. 90% confidence, n = 50 C. 99% confidence, n = 200 D. 99% confidence, n = 50
21. Calculate the 95% Confidence interval around a sample mean of 100, based on a sample NE 25 with a (population standard deviation) o = 10. (4 points)
===================================================================================== Problem 3. (2pts) The graph below shows the results from constructing 100 different confidence intervals of the same confidence level, each based on a different sample of size from a population in which the population mean is u = 20. Each vertical line in the graph spans the length of a different confidence interval. 100 40 60 Sample Number Based on these results, what is the most likely value of the confidence level used in constructing these confidence intervals?
And construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean
for sample B
8.2.13-1 95% confidence interval for the population mean for each of the samples below plain why these Assuming that the population is normally distributed, construct a two samples produce differen t confidence intervals even though they have the same mean and range Full dataset SampleA: 1 1 4 4 5 5 8 8 Sample B: 1 2 3 45 6 7 8 Construct a 95% confidence interval...
Assuming that the population is normally distributed, construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean, based on the following sample size of n=8.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 24 In the given data, replace the value 24 with 8 and recalculate the confidence interval. Using these results, describe the effect of an outlier (that is, an extreme value) on the confidence interval, in general.Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean, using the formula or technology.Round answer to two decimal places
48. Which of the following descriptions of confidence intervals is correct? a. Confidence intervals can only be computed for the mean b. We can only use the normal distribution to compute confidence intervals c. Confidence intervals can be computed for various parameters d. Confidence intervals can only be computed for the population
6) When ANOVA F-test suggests that the population means differ, we can examine confidence intervals estimating each population mean to try to determine which population means account for the difference. These are the same one-sample T- intervals we learned in Unit 9. The fictitious data from Study #2 give these 95% confidence intervals. Which population means appear to differ? Which might be the same? Table of confidence interval calculation 1 Grade Sample Mean Std. Err. DF L. Limit U. Limit...
Let's say we have constructed a 95% confidence interval estimate for a population mean. Which of the following statements would be correct? A. We expect that 95% of the intervals so constructed would contain the true population mean. B. We are 95% sure that the true population mean lies either within the constructed interval or outside the constructed interval. C. Taking 100 samples of the same size, and constructing a new confidence interval from each sample, would yield five intervals...
